I didn't realize those eyes to kill were discontinued. I didn't realize quite a few things were discontinued. They have gotten rid of quite a few things I liked. Armani has not been wowing me lately.

it's been happening quietly -- i'm hoping they'll possibly show up at l'oreal's cco-type stores, though :/ one can dream.

here are T's swatches of these new stellar shadows: Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Stellar • Eyeshadow Review & Swatches
not sure how i feel about these. i think i'm comparing them to the original EtK, which they are clearly not meant to be from a conceptual standpoint. overall, i'm somewhat interested in eclipse. if only starburst was a true bronze, i would have been so happy! *_*

It may be time for a trip. The only thing is the last time I took a trip to one of those shops they didn't have any reduced prices and seemed offended that I expected to see reduced prices. I hadn't been in the store in quite a while but I know I had bought items from them at a small reduced price before. I couldn't understand why a person wouldn't just go to the mall to purchase these items. They didn't have much old stock either. They did have some items on sale though. They didn't have every thing discounted in the store like the Estee Lauder CCO. But I do know I did buy Armani stuff from them before for a discounted price. I hadn't been outlet shopping in quite a few years and I felt like their policy had changed. (Please don't confuse this with the Estee Lauder CCO - their stuff is discounted!) Edit - I went to a shopping outlet center.

I preferred the previous pot shadows and I'm not into cream anything these days.
The quads look nice, but I've had Armani shadows before and they were lovely but didn't wow me on the eyes for whatever reason. I'm waiting for swatches and a 20% coupon.

I bought the Nude set of the Armani holiday triangle box. I loved it so much I bought 2. Both the gloss & lipstick are BEAUTIFUL on.

Against my better judgment and my rule about no more cream products, I tried the ETK Stellar in 05, the pink one. I am not a happy camper. It says High Pigment on the jar, but that is a lie. It almost looks like an eye gloss with glitter. Or like I just have a dusting of glitter on my lid. And this glitter....oh, the glitter....on my face, on my eyeglass lenses, on my shoe. :mad: Now, if you are fine with microglitter everywhere, it is actually pretty, but not what I was expecting or looking for. I will have to try it with glitter glue and just use it as a topper.

I guess the high pigment should be labeled high glitter!

Ugh! That stinks. I'm not a fan of glitter at all.

I just received that Nordstrom GWP bag :cloud9::cloud9::cloud9: Oh man is that Armani Bag BEAUTIFUL!!! Its a good size, is lined in a pale pink with 2 pockets in the back & elastic gather pockets on both ends. The zipper pulls each have GA gold logo circles. Loved the products in it too. Mascara, gloss, lipstick, eyeshadow, foundation. I think it might be one of the nicest GWP for me ever.
